communities. Especially the basic rights of Children and
women are facing great degree of violation in most
parts of the world.

These are the rights that are basic to all human beings
without the restriction of nationality, place of living,
Religion, Color, race, language, ethnic origin or any
further status. All the people are equally entitled to have
the same rights without any difference. In addition,
these rights are considering as indistinguishable and
interdependent. Such rights often expressed and
guaranteed by law in the way of treaties, general
principles, and other customary global laws.

nations that are not fulfilling their responsibilities to
stop the rights violation.Do you know what are the top

10-Nigeria
Nigeria is also in the list of world’s highly ranked
countries that are performing people rights violations at
large scale. The Officials at almost all levels continue to
commit serious abuses.
Women and girls abducted by the Islamist group Boko
Haram are forced to marry, convert, and suffer
psychological and physical exploitation . In addition,
females are forced to unauthorized labor and face rape
incidents. The Islamist group had kidnapped about 500
girls and women since 2009 and increased abductions
since May 2013, when Nigeria forced a state of
emergency in regions where Boko Haram is most
dynamic.
In Nigeria, the Human rights are protected under the
constitution of 1999. Government has made important
improvements in the constitution through the 2012
Human Rights Reports.The Police Force and other
government officials in Nigeria are also entitled for
large scale corruptions such as acceptance of bribes
and stealing public funds.

9-Yemen
The Government of Yemen failed to defend and maintain
the basic rights of their civilians. The important abuses
include sanctioned inequality especially against women,
officially permitted executions of kid offenders, and
almost no accountability of the earlier governments for
the violation of civilians basic rights.
The armed fight among the Government security forces
and the opposing forces is also causing a great degree
of certain violations. In addition, the state is also busy
in performing armed actions against Al-Qaeda group
along with United States that causing vicious situations.
The security forces of Yemen also accused of unlawful
torture, cruel treatment and even extrajudicial killing
and punishments

Myanmar (also known as Burma) is one of the top
countries that are facing large-scale violations of basic
rights in several ways. The organizations such as

have regularly published reports on the widespread
human rights abuses in Myanmar.The type of abuse
includes Land confiscation, Arbitrary Arrest, Forced
Labor physical torture, Human Trafficking, Rape and
Sexual Violence, Extrajudicial Killings, Child Soldiers,
mental and physical torture.
In addition, a number of human rights violations have

authorities and the Arakanese groups have committed
crimes against the civilians and more importantly
against the Rohingya Muslims since June 2012.
Hundreds of Rohingya Muslims have been killed in
attacks and the precise number of murders is still
unknown because the Government of Myanmar put
restriction on international access to the Rohingya.

Iraq remains under harsh circumstances during the
president Saddam Hussein phase of leadership. A lot of
Human rights violations were made during that era such
as mass murder, mental and physical torture, forced
disappearances, assassinations, and deportations. The
total number of murders by torture during that period
is unknown. The associations like Amnesty International
and Human Rights Watch issued regular reports of
extensive illegal custodians and torture.
While talking about violation of basic rights in post-
invasion Iraq, a number of controversies remained
under consideration. The United States and United
Kingdom are investigating numerous allegations of
violations of International along with the internal
standards of conduct in remote events by its own forces
and contractors.On July 18, 2014, the Islamic State of
Iraq the Levant (ISIL) and its partners stricken “untold
hardship and suffering on Iraq civilians”. According to
the UN reports, there is doubt regarding the Iraqi
security forces capabilities to overcome the terrorist
activities.

performing large-scale killings, injuries, and spoil of
properties and livelihoods . These destructive activities
carried out in systematic ways, and the ISIS militants
performed the targeted killings.

6-Afghanistan
While talking about Human rights situation in
Afghanistan, there is a lot of conflict and controversy.
Especially Taliban was well responsible for the various
fundamental rights violations in their time of
government. Some areas are still under Taliban control,
where Taliban abused, mainly against women and girls.
A series of highly-profile attacks on women in
Afghanistan highlighted the degree of threat that holds
for Afghan women. The law that was adopted in 2009,
to stop the violence against women, is still not enforced.
The security shift in Afghanistan has moved rapidly as
the International forces handing over areas to Afghan
security forces.

5-Somalia
The new government of Somalia failed to stop the
violation of civilian’s rights. As a result it holds the 5th
spot in the list of top ten countries that are
violating the human rights.The Somalian government
struggled to expand its control beyond the capital and
to some key regions in south-central Somalia in 2013.
Violation of the basic rights have made in Somalia in
terms of sexual violence, indiscriminate attacks, and
random arrests. The Islamist equipped group Al-
Shabaab keeps control of much of southern Somalia
and also increased the number of attacks on high-
profile civilian locals in the Capital.

Re: Top Ten Countries That Violate Human Rights by DAVECENA(m): 3:56pm On Apr 18, 2015
4-Pakistan
The condition of basic human rights is complex one in
Pakistan because of many factors including diversity of
the country, a large population and an Islamic republic
with mixture of both Islamic and Secular laws.Several
armed actions performed by the Taliban and their
associates during 2013 Parliamentary elections. Many
targeted killings and the bomb attacks carried out
during that election by the Taliban militants. That was
the first time a civilian government transferred the
constitutional power to another civilian government in
the history of Pakistan.
Freedom of the press is permitted but still any report
against the government policy or on a critical military
issue is censored. Freedom House (Non-governmental
association in U.S.) rated Pakistan as “Not Free” and
gave a score of 64 out of 100.Human rights violation
activities made in Baluchistan by the Security forces.
The U.S. drone attacks on some Pakistani remote areas
are also creating violent conditions. A number of people
arrested by the security forces as suspected terrorists
continue to suffer in illegal military custody without
being produced in court or being prosecuted.
Domestic violent behavior against the women is an
epidemic social crisis in Pakistan. According to study
conducted by the Human rights watch in 2009 about
70 to 90 percent of girls and women in Pakistan have
undergone some abuse.

3-The Democratic Republic of Congo
The human rights record in the State of Congo has
remained poor in almost all sectors. The records are
revealing the happening of various severe violations
including Unlawful murders, disappearances, rape,
torture, and uninformed arrest by the security forces.
Important thing is that only a few actions were taken to
penalize the violators.
Several armed groups remain active, and their armed
actions on the civilians are continued to occur. Political
disputes have augmented all over the State with protests
against the suggestions to change the Congo’s
constitution and let President Joseph Kabila to run for a
third term.

Human rights institutions have reported a number of
fundamental human rights abuses carried out by the

conflicts and armed fighting between the Rebel groups
and the security forces are causing a distress

security forces are performing arrests of activists,
opponent party members, and people suspected of
associations with rebel groups.
